However, ncdump appears to be broken - every netcdf-4 file I try results in something like this: ncdump: test.nc: HDF error It seems to work fine with netcdf-3 files however.Howdy Jeff! In this release, ncdump and ncgen can handle netCDF-4 files as long as they conform to the classic model. That is, as long as you don't use user-defined types and the new atomic types, it should work fine. (Ncdump does handle groups correctly, but not yet ncgen.) This is tested with the ncdump tests, when the script tst_netcdf4.sh is run in the ncdump directory. This script causes ncgen to create some netCDF-4/HDF5 files from the same CDL scripts that are used to test the netCDF-3 ncgen/ncdump stuff. Then the script feeds the resulting data files back to ncdump to make sure that the same CDL output results. For example: bash-3.00$ ../ncgen/ncgen -v3 -b -o c0.nc ../ncgen/c0.cdlbash-3.00$ ./ncdump c0.nc netcdf c0 {dimensions: Dr = UNLIMITED ; // (2 currently) D1 = 1 ; D2 = 2 ; D3 = 3 ; dim-name-dashes = 4 ; dim.name.dots = 5 ; variables: char c ; c:att-name-dashes = 4 ; c:att.name.dots = 5 ; <etc.> Do your files conform to the classic model?
Ed: Yes, they do. ncdump crashes on every netcdf4_classic file I give it. I'll try running the test and send you the results. -Jeff -- Jeffrey S.
